An electronic prototype “superseeker” using GFUN procedures can find 
about 22 percent of the generating functions for the approximately 4500 
sequences contained in Sloane's book [2] automatically without error.

https://www.ams.org/notices/200308/comm-sloane.pdf mentions:
Superseeker (superseeker.AT.research.att.com) carries out a more 
sophisticated analysis and tries hard to find an explanation for the 
sequence, even if it is not in the database.

Is that also included in what you meant?
